Can the R70 be set to place an automatic T Mark or index mark, when the
silence between cuts off an LP is of sufficient length?
Can any of the following do so, and how often did they miss a Mark, (ie. I

Hi!
I'm brand new to this list. I bought a Sony MZ-R70 through Minidisco.com
last week (my first MD unit) and I am very satisfied with it and I will
write a detailed review of the product for the web in a month or so.
I am now looking to buy blank MDs, and lots of 'em. My dilemma is as

does anyone know of a program or plugin for winamp that can insert blank
space between tracks on a playlist so tracks don't get recorded together?
it's a pain to go back and divide the tracks that are recorded together.

How complicated and expensive is it to ship electronic items purchased in

I'm going in a couple of weeks and am hoping to pick up some nice minidisc

It has blank mp3s of various lengths. I suggest you download the 2 second

inserting can be a bit of a pain but it doesn't take too long really.

Simon, I'm still going through the trouble of finding a reputable car radio
installer who can rig a portable minidisk player into an Audi A4's CD
changer input, (that's in lieu of a CD changer.) I have finally found an
